قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى قَدْ ذَكَرَ الرِّبَا فِي غَيْرِ آيَةٍ وَ كَرَّرَهُ فَقَالَ أَ وَ تَدْرِي لِمَ ذَاكَ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ لِئَلَّا يَمْتَنِعَ النَّاسُ مِنِ اصْطِنَاعِ الْمَعْرُوفِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, form Usman Bin Isa, from Sama’at who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘I see that Allah<sup>azwj</sup> the Exalted has Mentioned the interest in another Verse and Repeated it’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Or do you know why that is so?’ I said, ‘No’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Lest the people refrain from doing the good deeds’.
